How the philosophy discipline fulfills its mission
The teaching of philosophy at a Catholic institution of higher learning should be distinctive. This does not mean that there is a definitive system of Catholic philosophy that should govern how and what the philosophy faculty teach, research and publish, but it does entail an orientation toward the goals, values and concerns that are typical of philosophy departments in Catholic colleges and universities.
There are three noteworthy features of education in philosophy in a Catholic context that the philosophy faculty at St. Norbert strive to embody:
|
Fulfilling the mission
Teaching the philosophical tradition
Emphasis on values and critical thinking
Personal and spiritual development
